Says, However, That It is Due to War, Not Democratic Tariff Policy.

Gov. Charles S. Whitman of Nw York last nicht in i'ddres-sin;; a republican meetir.r: at the hich school auditorium, admitted that the American people are enjoying the greatest period of prosperity in history. but denied that democratic adinini.strattin. policy or wisdom is in any an ay responsible, and declared that I.rosperlty Ls b'in;: preserved by the artificial protection provided Ameri( an industry by the Kuropean wax. The republican speaker attacked and riticized I'rvs't Wilson's foreign policy. partiularly in regard to Mexico, and pleaded for the protective tariff by maintaining It to be the only mean by which prosperity could be continued in the United states. He ;t-sMerted that if the K uro pea n war had not come at the time it did, the democratic- tariff would have reduced

American Industry to a tottering shell of its former self. Gov. Whitman's address was heard by sa a.udlence which comfortably filled the lower Uoor of the hich. chool auditorium. Aaron Jones presided a chairman of the evening and Introduced the New York man. Preceding the meeting a band enlaced by the republicans attempted to stir

up a larger crowd for the speaker, even going to the length of leaving the auditorium after h o'clock to play a tune or two on Washington av. in an effort to attract others to the meeting. C&n't Deny Prosperity. "Although you have no protective tariff there has never been a time In your life or mine when the country has been so prosperous," declared Gov. Whitman. "We cannot deny this. Hut the reason is apparent and is the strongest argument fur protective tariff. This prosperity has been preserved In the present by the artificial protection of war. from the folly and the peril of the free democratic tarifl of 1310. MJn the first 10 months of the Un

derwood tariff, from October, lOlU until August, 1914, when the European wax started, the American markets abroad decreased. The foreign market in the United States decreased. Through four repnblican years before the Underwood tariff the reverse happened. War Orders No Criterion. "War ordere are nc criterion for the present prosperity. These war orders are only rive per cent, onetwentieth of our total manufactured product. The estimated value of our manufactured products this year, from one-ninth to orie-fonrth greater than two years ago. Is really due to the exclusion of ITuropean manufactures! by the war and to the development due to new demands created by their exclusion. The protection war gives will instantly disappear when war ends. It will be fatal at such a time to elect any hut T. president pledged to protection and a congress ready to pass a tariff suited to the needs and peril of competition from foreign manufacturers, hungry for our markets. We must put on guard the republican party, a president and congress pledged to protecrtion against the perils the cessation of hostilities In Hurope must bring. Gov. Whitman attacked Prest Wilson's foreign policy, declaring that the United states was being regarded among the smaller southern republics a- a "bully." in .speaking of Mexico he said: Says Things Are Worsr. "Have the good others of this nation been used, to help the downtrodden, to relieve the oppressed, to nd those struggling in a righteous cause even with our moral support in the country' at our south? our relations were not unfriendly with Mexico three years acn. There was

n need that they should become as j they are today. Point to one single j art of the president which has not ; made it worse for the Mexicans and Americans as w ell. "More Americans s-a ri ri ed their j lives at the hands of the Mexicans j th in were killed by Spanish bullets j luring the war with Spain; American lives and American property! .!vtroed without the slightest pre-! tense or pretext of cause or justui-' Mtion. rr'st of them of course com-; mtted under the direction o; Villa i ii:d Carranza. neither of whom!

a Klint nae nai me possible opportinity of warrinc with Huetta and lien on defenseless America, had it not Neri for the stupid blundering the watchful waiter' m the white 1. usc Offers No Solution. Gov.
